That's what the first owner got, in place of the metal P-O-P that was delivered with U.S.-purchased cars; it was issued by GM of Canada-Oshawa, and mailed to the new car owner. Note the paragraph below the card where it talks about receiving the card in the mail.

So what happens to the metal POP placed in the car at the factory? Are they not made up for cars slated for export to Canada?

Is there such a thing as second owner warranty plates for Canadian cars like there is for domestic cars?

Is there any decoding information for the Canadian POP's?

Thanks for your response. CRG data on POP's is pretty thin.

We don't know for sure (not many data points), but we think the metal P-O-P was removed by the receiving dealer when the car was sold, and forwarded with the customer's name and address to GM of Canada HQ, who then created the plastic Canadian P-O-P and mailed it to the customer.

There's not much on the card to decode - only the two numbers above and to the left of the "GM" symbol; we don't know what they are (most likely some sort of account number for the car and the dealer).
